Abstract
Embodiments relate to systems, devices, non-transitory computer-readable storage media, and computer-implemented methods for resolving DNS requests by receiving a first Domain Name System (DNS) resolution request, extracting first contextual data from the first DNS resolution request, determining to apply a first resolution rule based on the first contextual data and a contextual condition, forwarding the first DNS resolution request to a DNS resolver based on applying the first resolution rule, receiving a second DNS resolution request, extracting second contextual data from the second DNS resolution request, determining to apply a second resolution rule based on the second contextual data and the contextual condition, and retrieving a resource in response to the second DNS resolution request based on applying the second resolution rule.
